Del Posto has turned me into a believer. Bring your parents, bring your clients, bring your significant other. Basically bring anyone who you're trying to impress. Del Posto has it all: amazing Italian food, world class service and grandiose decor without being stuffy. Just let me tell you, whoever you bring here, you are all in for a treat.

Let's talk about what got me most interested in going to Del Posto in the first place, Eater's article on The Making of a 100 Layer Lasagna. Doesn't that sound like perfection?
*drool*

Just thinking about all those layers made my head spin and I knew I had to try it ASAP. I mean, have you ever even tried making a lasagna? I'm lucky enough if I can make it up to 10 layers, let alone 100! What a work of art!

So while I was a bit hesitant to give this joint venture from two TV food celebs Mario Batali and Joe Bastianich a try (overrated? overpriced??) - Del Posto finally found a way to lure me in. With the promise of a bolognese braised for over 6 hours, layered between delicate sheets of pasta finished off in a pan to give it some crispy texture.
You have the choice of doing either a lunch of dinner prix fixe. We opted to come here for lunch and was lucky to catch it while it was still $39 for 3 courses. Lunch is now priced at $49, which is still completely worth it for the quality of food and service that you get at this 1 Michelin Star establishment.
